The Gilded Age Part 2


Listen Later

This podcast continues the discussion on the period we call the Gilded Age. We pick this podcast up by introducing JP Morgan and Rockefeller's business enterprises and the problems their monopolies caused. 

We then go into the government's legislation in the Sherman Antitrust Act, the creation of the FTC, how it evolved into what it is today, as well as the Departments of Commerce and Labor.

Lastly, we get into more modern-day monopolies such as AT&T, and the potential monopolies of Google, Facebook, and Amazon. 

There is always more to learn!
